10. Alice Cooper

The original “shock rockers,” Alice Cooper has used snakes, electric chairs and guillotines during their live shows. Alice Cooper’s horror movie-inspired stages played off of the dark nature of their songs, as well as the facial makeup and all-black attire of the band’s lead singer, who has become known as Alice Cooper. Cooper paved the way for future shock-rockers Marilyn Manson, among others, who borrowed heavily from the original’s thrilling stage presence.
